Nikka's POV

I'm here with Jino oppa and Minho oppa in one of the rehearsal rooms.  Well, that's what I call them, at least.

Jino oppa and Minho oppa called the room as my own personalized room, because apparently I'm 'special'.

I don't see how the f*** I can be so special - I want to be treated like everyone else!

.....but then again, it was MY FAULT that I couldn't choose which company to side in..... Which is why both buildings have given me few special treatments than the other workers, and that's a bit farfetched, even for me.

You could say I'm in denial that people are treating me special.  :P

The females who work around S.M. Entertainment building scared the crap out of me.  They look down on me as if I was acting all superior to them.

Maybe it's because the personalized room the company assigned me to rehearse in from now on looks like royalty - let me specify:  *ahem* THE ROOM IS F***ING PINK!!!

I turned around to glare at my oppas.  "Yah, how can you guys say that I'm being treated like royalty around here?!  It's obvious that I'm not because this room is pink!"  I stayed my distance away from the room.

Jino oppa raised an eyebrow at me.  "Key oppa decided on the color, you know...."  he mentioned.  WHAT?!

I guess Minho oppa saw my reaction because now he's trying to calm me down.  "Nikka, er, Bangul-sshi, we should start practicing whether you like the room or not."  he suggested.

"But it's too... GIRLY!"  I whined and stomped my foot.  The females passed by and overheard my short tantrum.  They glared at me.

"Yah, princess, what's wrong with the room?  Need more glitter?"  "Yeah!  The Almighty himself decorated that room!  What more do you want?!"

Wow....b****es, I guess.

"The room's too girly."  I simply stated.  Might as well be calm about it.

I turned to Minho oppa and Jino oppa.  "What are your favorite colors?"  I asked them.

They looked at me weirdly, then answered, "Green."  "Light blue."

I smiled and turned to the ladies now.  "Those are good colors, right?"  Before they answered me, I continued.  "We'll be interior decorating before starting practice - bye~pretty noonas!"  I waved at them and winked before dragging my friends outside of the building.

By the time we went outside, Minho oppa and Jino oppa stopped me from dragging them.  "Yah, Bangul-sshi, what the hell are we doing?"  Minho oppas complained.

"And why did you call them noonas?  You're a girl."  Jino oppa asked with curiosity.

I shrugged.  "We need to buy paint - LOTS OF IT.  I have a feeling Rain sunbaenim had my private practice room decorated all girly as well.  Also, if I act like a guy, then they won't have to call me princess or treat me special, right?"

We all laughed together and walked down the street in disguises (except for me) as Minho oppa and Jino oppa shook their heads at me.

Jonghyun entered the building after a radio schedule was over for S.M. The Ballad.  He yawned and glanced at the clock.

2:58a.m. ....I wonder what the rest of the members have in store for me... where did they say to go?  Floor 4 Rm. 40?  Jonghyun thought to himself as he approached the elevators.

Once he got off the elevator on the 3rd floor, Jonghyun continued to search for Rm. 40.  His eyes widened as the name Kang Yu Di appeared on the front door.

You have got to be kidding me.  They keep changing her stage name!

Jonghyun opened the door to find... the most fascinating practice room ever.

Each wall had been painted a different color and customized for each individual in the room - even the floor and ceiling had been customized!  The hard wooden floor had been flawlessly polished and squeaky clean.  As for the ceiling, it had been painted completely in a funny color and glow-in-the-dark stars were stuck on there. The mirrored wall has few scribbles on it with a special Sharpie marker and minimum of stickers around the edges.

I bet Key suggested the mirror to look like this...oh, yeobo....  

The lead singer shook his head and chuckled as he found Key sleeping on a beanbag chair with Amber leaning on his left side, near a pink wall decorated with tons of fancy stuff spelling out DIVA and PRINCESS.

No doubt that this is Key's wall...HAHAHA - Jonghyun's thought was interrupted once he realized who slept at Key's right shoulder in one of the pink beanbags.  He glared at the sleeping Key and silently yet carefully carried his girlfriend away from him.

He frowned as he noticed Nikka's weight being lighter than when it used to be.  It's either I'm getting more buffer, or she's not eating a lot again.  

With Nikka in his arms, he wandered around the room, noticing the sealed but used paint cans in one corner of the room.  Jonghyun glanced around the room again and found the rest of s sleeping near the walls where they last decorated.

No wonder Jino requested to go home early... I knew he didn't have a stomachache, Jonghyun thought as he saw Jino sleeping next to Onew on the floor close to a light blue wall decorated with few simple pictures of themselves in random areas of the wall.  For the 2nd time in his life, Jonghyun surprisingly smelled no chicken around.  I guess he really was telling the truth when he admitted he wasn't THAT much into chicken...proves he's a human being.

He then caught a 2MIN moment on the floor, Taemin and Minho cuddling each other for warmth and comfort in front of a green wall.  This time it was just a plain green wall.

Not wanting to wake up the others, Jonghyun smiled and sat on the ground with his back on the mirrored wall, settling Nikka beside him and placing her head on his lap for comfort.  Unfortunately for him, Nikka felt her head being moved and woke up slowly.  She smiled as she saw her tired and cute boyfriend in front of her face.

"Hey, oppa."  she greeted him softly.

"Hey, babe.  How many times does the company have to change your stage name?"  was the first thing he asked her.

Nikka shrugged.  "They told me a while ago before we started painting that both companies settled with the name that's on the door right now.  I haven't gotten a chance to look at it, actually."

"Oh.  Well, the door says Kang Yu Di, if that's alright."  Nikka nodded her head in agreement and startled Jonghyun by pulling his head down for a sweet simple kiss.  Jonghyun responded quickly, and now both their tongues are fighting inside their mouths for dominance.

If it hadn't been for Cheon Sa accidentally barging in the room to look for Onew, the kiss could've gotten a bit more intimate even though there were still people in the room sleeping.
